Welcome to Treads CC!
We offer regular Road and Off-road cycling group rides to suit all cycling abilities.
Treads Cycle Club brings together riders who enjoy discovering the best of Northamptonshire on two wheels, from quiet country lanes and overlooked back roads to routes that challenge, inspire and reward every level of cyclist. We've been established for over 25 years, so we know how to run a cycling club. Weather you're a new rider, experienced road rider or prefer off-road rides such as gravel or mountain biking, you'll find your place in our club.
At the heart of the club is a welcoming, sociable spirit where new riders quickly feel part of the group – with a no-drop policy, we don't leave anyone behind. Every ride is between 30-60 miles, designed to combine enjoyment, support and shared enthusiasm, creating an environment where members can develop their skills, meet like-minded people and simply enjoy cycling.
If you want to find out more, read our FAQs page for more information.
